text: When children listen to music, they don't just listen. They melt into the melody and flow with the rhythm. Something inside starts to unfold its wings - soon the child and the music are one. I feel that way, too, in the presence of music, and my best moments of creativity have often been spent with children. When I am around them, music comes to me as easily as breathing. Each song is a child I nourish and give my love to. But even if you have never written a song, your life is a song. How can it not be? In wave after wave, Nature caresses you - the rhythm of each dawn and each sunset is part of you, the falling rain touches your soul, and you see yourself in the clouds that are playing tag with the sun. To live is to be musical, starting with the blood dancing in your veins. Everything living has a rhythm. To feel each one, softly and attentively, brings out its music. its music. Do you feel your music? Children do, but once we grow up, life becomes a burden and a chore, and the music grows fainter. Sometimes the heart is so heavy that we turn away from it and forget that its throbbing is the wisest message of life, a wordless message that says, "Live, be, move, rejoice -- you are alive!"Without the heart's wise rhythm, we could not exist. When I begin to feel a little tired or burdened, children revive me. I turn to them for new life, for new music. Two brown eyes look at me so deeply, so innocently, and inside I murmur, "This child is a song." It is so true and direct an experience that instantly I realize again, "I am a song also." I am back to myself once more.

One region where it's notoriously difficult to win internship and full-time offers is Hong Kong.
Not only are you competing with approximately half the population of mainland China (they're even more obsessed with finance), you're also up against candidates from other East Asian countries, plus plenty of people studying in the US, UK, and other regions.
And then there are the language tests, difficult technical questions, and the need to go there in-person for part of the interview process.
But it's still possible to win offers there even if you have no family background in Asia and you're coming from a non-target school.
In this wide-ranging discussion, I get an M&I reader to explain:
- How he won a sales & trading summer internship;
- How to network when you're overseas; and
- What to expect in sales & trading interviews, assessment centers, and more… in Hong Kong.

Alive into Heaven
by Henry Morris, Ph.D.
"And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven." (2 Kings 2:11)
This remarkable event--the translation of Elijah alive into heaven, without dying--was altogether miraculous, but it really happened! Among other things, it assures us that heaven is a real place in this created universe, for Elijah is still there in his physical body, still alive, to this very day.
The prophet Enoch, who had also served God in a time of deep apostasy, had likewise been taken into heaven without dying (that is, into the "third heaven," beyond the starry heaven, where God's throne is), as recorded in Genesis 5:24 and Hebrews 11:5. Enoch's prophecies, addressed to the entire world of mankind, were given at approximately the midpoint of the period from Adam to Abraham, whereas those of Elijah, addressed only to Israel, were given at essentially the midpoint of the time from Abraham to Christ. Both were caught up alive into heaven before their ministries were finished. It is possible that they will return again to earth as God's "two witnesses" who will prophesy to both Jews and Gentiles in the last days (note Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 11:3-12), then finally to be slain and resurrected.
In any case, there will also be one entire generation of believers who will--like Enoch and Elijah--be caught up alive into heaven. "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven . . . and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air" (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17).
This could very well be our generation! And "when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is" (1 John 3:2). HMM

You'll have to get a win32 resource that can read/write to executable files. The icons are stored in Scribe.exe as resources. |
spazma 10/04/2007 4:16am |
i try this long time ago used resource hacker, and i have error "this file has a non-standard resource layout it has probably been compresed with an EXE COMPRESSOR" any other way to change tray icons.. why not give any option in inscribe? ;) |
fret 10/04/2007 4:52am |
Ah yes, I do compress the exe. It saves on space and download bandwidth.
So that kinda leaves you with no options. I want the product to be easy to use and that in this case means going with the standard windows way of defining icons so they can't get lost/mis matched. I also don't know how to convert sat a png to something I can use as a HICON for the tray icon. I'm sure it's possible but it's just more work, which isn't what I need right now. My focus is getting the Mac port stable and feature complete (this is going well but it's hard work) and revamping the IMAP code. |

They're definitely bad for most of the systems they're in. What's your stance on other non-natives like brookies and browns?
What's your definition of native. Because in most flowing waters the northern pikeminnow, aka the squawfish, is a native species and rainbow trout is not. Not to forget whitefish and suckers-they are native as well.
I already said I'm not going to debate this or even elaborate any further. My level of caring on this matter is slim to none. Other than the huge bass populations in the Columbia system, I could give a rats ass about most any other introduced fish we have in this state. Many lakes that never had fish before now provide angling opportunities that had never existed, and I think that's great. I just don't see a need to get bent out of shape about a bass or two that got a barbed hook stuck to it.
I believe our responses stems from the fact that you posted in the stillwater section and originally you did not define your perspective well. I hope you understand why some folks may have misread your intent. You fish for steel in the Columbia, you don't like the bass there because they are not native and they mess with the native fish you would like to see restored. You obviously do not support the bounty on Northern Pike Minnow and must instead support an erradication of the non-nates in the system as well. With this you probably would be up for targeting the turns that are know to feed on smolt. I believe that based on your other posts you support a multiple number of conservation techniques in order to protect/restore said fish regardless if those practices are realistic or not. Good luck in your hatchery management campaign. Again if you do not wish to debate, I hope you understand why we thought you did. Ira..
Killing bass and not eating them is stupid and illegal, even in places where they don't belong. And it wasn't the bass that screwed Chopaka(though they certainly didn't help). It was the big, predatory triploids introduced by WDFW that killed that lake.
Killed Chopaka? Apparently you didn't fish there last spring or fall becuase the catching was outstanding. I've fished Chopaka for over 2 decades and although I do remember it being better in some previous years, it was more than satisfactory last season. I don't see anything wrong with trying to fish out spiny rays in places where quality trout fisheries have been illegally planted or places where the introduced centrarchids are eating native juvenile salmonids. However, throwing centrarchids on the bank seems a bit wasteful. What's wrong with eating 'em for dinner or letting them rot a bit and using them for crab bait? Personally, I don't hate bass, I just don't like to fish for them because they are so easy to land. The only bass I've ever caught that fought for more than a couple minutes was a 5 pound smally in Lake Wa. I caught it fishing for cutts and man was it tasty! That was before I was concerned about the effect of water quality on the resident fishes in Lake Wa. At this point, you couldn't pay me to eat a resident fish from Lake Wa. or Lake Sam. because their tissue is loaded with a cocktail of chemicals.
They poisoned it and restocked about two years ago(last spring it just came back into true form). When they have to poison a lake to start over I consider it killed, though it did rebound nicely. WDFW biologist say they won't put any more triploids in, just fingerlings like they always have. The stunted smallmouth were the result of local bucket biologists, not a WDFW mistake like the trips.
OK triploid junkie, now I know what you mean by killed. When you wrote that the triploids killed the lake I didn't think you meant they rotenoned it because of the triploids. Your wording confused me but I'm glad to hear that the planting plans will go back to what worked in the past. Wilken
The reproduce and kill all small fish in the ecosystem it is unreal. They destroy a lot of what should be good trophy lakes.
Sounds like you just described the human race. Still no excuse to just chuck them in the bushes. I think its cute that you keep trying to defend your position though. Keeps things interesting. Ira..
Yes, I agree on the human race issue. Cute, come on Ira, you could have used a better word. Have to defend what I believe in. I understand that most fish species are noty native. I just would rather have one over the other one.
You catch, you kill, you throw on the bank? Come on man. That is fish wasting and you should get your fishing priveledges revoked for a while to make you appreciate what you have an are wasting. Mother Nature did not make Trophy Lakes, she created ecosystems. Ecosystems that vary from season to season and year to year. Man made Trophy Lakes by altering the ecosystem for his own selfish pursuits. If you are gonna kill fish just because they are bycatch and not the species you are after, how about picking a better place where your target species is the only game in town? Otherwise, how about hanging it up?
That is right Mumbles you are the fly fisherman of all flyfisherman. So why is it you fish then? To catch and release fish, isn't that wrong also then. For you own fun and enjoyment. Why even fish then. You could possibly be hurting or even killing the fish everytime you catch and release it so why even do it. According to animal activists that is crule also. You are funny, I guess you should not be allowed to fish atr any trophy lakes that are stocked with trout, that is the priveledge you get when there are no bass in there that might damage that specific lake. That is right, you know all about everything, I forgot. To kill bass, nothing wrong with it. The majority of the people that are fly guys don't like bass for the reason I said. Have you ever heard of a lake getting overfished by catching to many bass? No not at all.
It is too bad that you feel it is constructive to waste a natural resource and to mock someone like Ed at the same time. If you feel the need to kill indiscriminately you should go work on an offshore catcher processor in the Pacific and see the Dollies, and Steelhead that get caught, killed, and tossed over the side. It would be good to know where you live so that we won't have to worry about the stink from dead, wasted bass.
There is a lot more bass than salmon out there. And to mock Mumbles, it funny how someone can start to mock me but can't take it. There is a lot of good info, and for me to say I kill bass doesn't mean that I agree on killing Stealhead and other native Salmon species. If you want PM me and I can give you directions to my house. How is that.
I can take it, it is cute. You are right. I am mistaken. No need to get in a fight about our disagreements in fishing. Have a great day.
You must not be counting the 6 million pinks that return to the sound rivers alone. For some reason I don't believe there are more bass than salmon. Like this thread it really doesn't matter.
Disagreements are ok, it's the people who blow them way of proportion. Seems that when ever some one gets all mad they start getting all excited.

The occurrence of noninsect arthropods in popular music was examined in order to explore human attitudes toward these species, especially as compared to insects. Crustaceans were the most commonly referenced taxonomic group in artist names, album titles and cover art, followed by spiders and scorpions. The surprising prevalence of crustaceans may be related to the palatability of many of the species. Spiders and scorpions were primarily used for shock value, as well as totemic qualities of strength and ferocity. Spiders were the most abundant group among song titles, perhaps because of their familiarity to the general public. Three noninsect arthropod album titles were found from the early 1970s, then none appear until 1990. Older albums are difficult to find unless they are quite popular, and the resurgence of albums coincides with the rise of the internet. After 1990, issuance of such albums increased approximately linearly. Giant and chimeric album covers were the most common of themes, indicating the use of these animals to inspire fear and surprise. The lyrics of select songs are presented to illustrate the diversity of sentiments present, from camp spookiness to edibility.
Cultural entomology has examined the relationship between humans and insects through a variety of popular media. For example, with notable exceptions, insects in film are used to inspire fear [
In the present study, I examine taxonomy and themes in popular music to determine the manner in which people perceive noninsect arthropods. This group was chosen as a sister group to the insects as a means of testing whether similar trends occur. It was anticipated that arthropods with well established reputations, such as scorpions and black widows (
Amazon.com® was searched for popular terms referring to noninsect arthropods (
Limits established for previous studies [
For much of the taxonomic analysis, data were lumped according to three convenient groups: Crustacea, Araneae and Scorpiones. Although not taxonomically equivalent, these groups are readily recognizable to the general public. Other groups, with many fewer results, were not considered in great detail.
Noninsect arthropods were quite rare in popular music. Insects are represented by 160% more artists and 59% more albums than noninsect arthropods. Insect-specific music was estimated to comprise only 0.1% of the pop music canon (see [
There were 82 artist names related to noninsect arthropods, while there were 134 such album titles, 62 cases of cover art and 7352 songs. A list of artists and albums is provided in the supplementary material. Crustaceans were the most commonly encountered group among artist names, album titles and album covers, followed by spiders then scorpions (
Indeed, the food theme was reflected rather directly in crustacean artist names, such as Jumbo Shrimp Band, Plate O' Shrimp, and Lobster Newberg. Albums of edible crustaceans are found in
The crustacean connection runs deep in rock history, as the Crawdaddy Club was a well known venue in England where, incidentally, the Rolling Stones performed very early in their career. The club's name inspired that of
Primarily negative attitudes toward spiders were depicted by the artist names, such as Mean Red Spiders, Spider Virus, and Spider Vomit. There were also four variations of black widow and two of brown recluse in artist names. Albums
The greatest single contributor to the data was German classic rock group The Scorpions, with 16 album covers and three titles of their own, as well as two by a former member and four tribute albums (each with scorpion cover art) by other artists.
Although data were lumped into groups for analysis of major trends, it is interesting to note that some relatively obscure species were represented in song titles (
The first noninsect arthropod albums appear in the early 1970s. No further examples appear until 1990, when such works increase in frequency approximately linearly to the present (
Gigantism was the most common theme in cover art, followed by chimeric figures, infestations, tattoos and food (
It is not surprising that Gigantism was a frequent theme in cover art, as noninsect arthropods are frequently used for shock value. Gigantism enhances the scariness of such depictions, just as it does in film [
A similar negative effect applies to depictions of numerous individuals, as infestations are more impressive than individual animals. However, chimeric arthropods were the second most common theme. Chimeric, or at least anthropomorphic, insects are common in animated films that feature insects [
Although most noninsect arthropod songs are relatively obscure, a few have been sufficiently successful to enter the popular conscience. Examination of lyrical content may reveal further insight into the noninsect arthropod perception by humans (performances of nearly all songs below are available for viewing on YouTube®). Recently, No Doubt's 1995 single "Spiderwebs", from And now I'm stuck in the web You're spinning You've got me for your prey Sorry, I' m not home right now I'm walking into spiderwebs
Another very popular tune was the B-52's "Rock Lobster" from their 1978 self-titled debut. Though the lyrics defy ready interpretation, there is no question that the song is fun and extremely danceable. The crustacean is mentioned in the first two stanzas:
We were at a party His ear lobe fell in the deep Someone reached in and grabbed it It was a rock lobster We were at the beach Everybody had matching towels Somebody went under a dock And there they saw a rock It wasn't a rock It was a rock lobster
Alice Cooper's "The Black Widow", from the classic Leaving Lepidoptera…Please, don't touch the display, little boy, aha cute! Moving to the next aisle we have Arachnida, the spiders, our…finest collection. This friendly little devil is the heptothilidi, unfortunately harmless. Next to him, the nasty
This narration, of debatable accuracy, is followed by the actual song (first two stanzas only shown):
These words he speaks are true We're all humanary stew if We don't pledge allegiance to The Black Widow The horror that he brings The horror of his sting The unholiest of kings The Black Widow
Among the glaring errors are the sting instead of a bite, and the character being portrayed as a male, but perhaps Cooper is using the Black Widow as a metaphor for a despotic ruler or even an addictive drug.
Although most fans do not take Alice Cooper too seriously, The Who's "Boris the Spider" definitely falls into the scary/campy category:
Look, he's crawling up my wall Black and hairy, very small Now he's up above my head Hanging by a little thread Boris the spider Boris the spider Now he's dropped on to the floor Heading for the bedroom door Maybe he's as scared as me Where's he gone now, I can't see Boris the spider Boris the spider Creepy, crawly Creepy, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly There he is wrapped in a ball Doesn't seem to move at all Perhaps he's dead, I'll just make sure Pick this book up off the floor Boris the spider Boris the spider (repeat chorus) He's come to a sticky end Don' t think he will ever mend Never more will he crawl 'round He's embedded in the ground Boris the spider Boris the spider
As with insects [
Perhaps lesser known songs hold more insights than the popular ones. The palatability of crustaceans is reflected clearly in Elvis Presley's "Crawfish", a 2-minute duet (with Kitty White) from the movie
Well I went to the bayou just last night
There was no moon but the stars were bright
Put a big long hook on a big long pole
And I pulled Mr. Crawfish out of his hole
See I got him, see the size
Stripped and cleaned before your eyes
Sweet meat look, fresh and ready to cook
Now take Mr. Crawfish in your hand
He's gonna look good in your frying pan
If you fry him crisp or you boil him right
He'll be sweeter than sugar with every bite
Human attitudes toward noninsect arthropods are demarcated on largely taxonomic lines. Crustaceans, most abundant among artist names, album titles, and cover art, are frequently presented in a favorable light as food items. Spiders, by far the most common among song titles, are used for shock value and totemic attributions of power. Scorpions, intermediate in popularity in all categories, are almost exclusively used to induce fear. Noninsect arthropodic music may be increasing in frequency, but sampling biases abound. In contrast to names and titles, themes prevalent among album covers featuring noninsect arthropods tend toward the frightening and horrific, demonstrating a difference between written and visual forms.

Fruit and vegetable intake in 7-9-year-old children. Effect of a school-based intervention on fruit and vegetable intake at school and at home
Objective: To further explore the effects of the school-based intervention "Nutrition in Icelandic 7 – 9 - year-old children" on fruit and vegetable intake in the midmorning-break, in the school-lunch and at home. Gender difference was explored and the effects on those children with lowest levels of fruit and vegetable intake, at baseline, versus those with the highest level.
Design: School-based dietary intervention study on fruit and vegetable intake in 7 – 9 -year-old children, assessed with three-day weighed dietary records.
Setting: Six randomly selected schools in Reykjavik, Iceland. Three intervention schools and three control schools.
Subjects: 7 – 9 -year-old school children. 163 children were studied for baseline values, and 105 for comparison of baseline and follow-up fruit and vegetable intake.
Results: The highest proportional increase, 65% (P=0.047), in fruit intake was in the midmorning-snack but increase in vegetable intake was more evenly distributed. Boys in the intervention group increased their fruit intake by 61 g/day (P=0.001) in the midmorning-snack and the girls in the control group decreased their fruit intake by 72 g/day (P<0.001) in the midmorning-snack. The lowest tertile in the intervention group increased its schoolday fruit and vegetable intake by 109 g/day (P<0.001) and the highest tertile in the control group decreased its intake by 256 g/day (P=0.028).
Conclusion: Intervention and/or multi component nutritional education in schools are very effective in sustaining and improving fruit and vegetable intake in school-children. Most changes in intake from the present intervention are seen in the midmorning-snack.

My first pair of animal prints
"These are the first pair of animal print shoes I've purchased and I'm happy I did. They are so pretty and versatile. I can wear them with jeans or with work trousers and they look fab. They are a bit on narrow and feels a little hard on the inside. I'll definitely use these with a shoe insert for comfort. But don't let that discourage you."

Cute Look
"This is a super cute shoe but a little harsh on your feet if you plan to go dancing in them. If you aren't going to be on your feet for hours and want something stylish then this is your shoe! I've received so many compliments on them"

Surgical treatment of chronic acromioclavicular dislocation: comparison between two surgical procedures for anatomic reconstruction. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 20934695 Owner: NLM Status: In-Process |
INTRODUCTION: Surgical treatment of chronic complete acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation is still debated and no gold standard surgical procedure has been identified. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective series of 90 patients treated for AC dislocations is reported here. Patients were divided into three groups: group 1 receiving AC reconstruction with a Dacron vascular prosthesis; group 2 receiving AC reconstruction with LARS(®) artificial ligament; group 3 receiving conservative treatment. Follow-up was performed after 1, 6 and 15 months with plain radiographs, UCLA, SPADI and modified UCLA acromioclavicular rating scales. RESULTS: Patients treated surgically presented significant better functional outcome compared to patients treated conservatively with overall positive results in 93.3% of patients for group 2 and 53.3% of patients for group 1. However, reconstruction with Dacron vascular prosthesis presented an unacceptable high complications rate (43.3%). CONCLUSION: Our results show that anatomic AC reconstruction with LARS(®) artificial ligament resulted in both satisfactory functional outcome and low complication rate. Therefore, we recommend this procedure for the treatment of chronic complete AC dislocations. |

Cookstown Travel guide
Cookstown : Michelin's recommendations
Cookstown was once a major linen centre and is now a predominantly agricultural community, specialising in pig farming and dairy herds. Cookstown's most striking feature is its very broad main street, which under ten different names extends north from the River Ballinderry towards Slieve Gullion (528 m). Notable buildings include Holy Trinity Church (Catholic, 1860), the convent chapel (1965) and 18C courthouse.

I'm mulling over this sort of thing myself, but I'm only think 6 months.
Slow Friday afternoon, got me musing. So, who on here has taken an extended break from work to commit some proper time to their tennis (I think I could swing it at work)?
I know of one guy on here that took a 18-24 month sabbatical, from a position of being a strong player already.
What can realistically be achieved in a 6 MONTH period I wonder
, with the following setup:
- 34 years old, (ok, 3 weeks from 35!), 5 ft 9.775, married, no children for 2-3 years. Wife who would also like to do the same, for herself.
- Finances ok for that time
- Must be at a fighting tennis weight before starting, but not necessarily singles tennis fit (i.e. gym and drills would form part of tennis 6 months)
- I have volleycam, Lobster ball machine, various court strings and cones and things already.
- I have a tennis club membership, though *might* also consider joining an indoor club for 6 months to ensure playing (Acrylic and carpet courts)
- currently a middling 4.0 (Play higher ability dubs than singles though), played a lot from 11-15 yr old, then stopped for 12/13 years completely, treaded water from 28-33.
33-34 got more focussed
2 hrs coaching per week
with a friend, 2 separate hours however. Friend is LTA 3.1, 26 years old fairly active player, and a performance coach.
So, assuming the necessary dedication, and let's say 30 hrs per week of tennis training (Court time and physical training), what do we think is achievable over 6 months?
Your answers and\or recommendations can range from:
- Stupid open question
- A ratings bump answer
- A more practical, *you will get more control over your shots and gain confidence* type answers
- Why bother, save your money!
- Whatever answer you fancy giving!
This is a Friday afternoon time-filler as well as a reasonably serious first pass at working out if this is worth it.
My own personal motivation will be the ultimate decider
, but I'm interested in people's success stories or insight.
I'm quite a bit younger than you but the same idea occured to me about a year ago. stepped down as VP of a tech startup to focus more on writing and tennis. I've done pretty well at the 4.5 level and play a few open tournaments each year. usually draw D1 players in the first round, so haven't done too well in them unfortunately. my ultimate goal is to be nationally ranked when I'm eligible for ITF seniors (35+). if I make steady progress in the next ten years, I should have a decent shot.
a few thoughts based on personal experience:
1) I signed up for one of the better private clubs in the city and met many business contacts, in addition to high-level hitting partners, at the club. have not needed to pay for any lessons in the past year because I've been hitting a lot with nationally ranked juniors (U14 boys and U18 girls) and coaches at the club who need a practice partner to train for tournaments (a lady I often practice with used to have the same coach as max mirnyi back in belarus and had a decent national ranking before stopping at age 18 to go to university).
2) if you can, go to the club during the middle of the day, around lunch hour. that's when the best juniors and the business executives tend to hit the courts. whether you're looking for better players to hit with, or industry contacts for when you do decide to go back to work, that'd be your best bet. one guy I met recently will sometimes call me for a hitting session in the early afternoon because he has a hard time finding a partner that time of day. considering he was a ATP touring pro, #1 in Canada overall when he was 19 and trained with Agassi at Bollettieri, I'm pretty lucky that he calls me.
3) how flexible is your wife's work situation? it would be an extreme example, but if possible I would consider moving to another country with a lower cost of living for a few months and training there. when I go to china I hit with former touring pros and pay around $20 USD for court and coaching fee combined per hour. might be a worthwhile thing to look into
